Advanced Empyrion server settings

How do I upload my own scenario?

  1. If you want to use a scenario, first subscribe to the corresponding scenario in the STEAM Workshop.
  2. Now download the scenario
    -> It may be necessary to start your game once
  3. Before you continue, you should stop the server, as with any change to the server (in the web interface on our website, just click on the appropriate button at the top)
  4. Now establish a FTP connection to your server
    -> We recommend a program like FileZilla for the FTP connection
    -> You can also find more information about the FTP connection HERE
    -> It is important that you set the FTP transfer to „binary“
  5. Now upload the scenario to the following path on your server (right side in the FTP-Tool):
    -> /ConfigID/Content/Scenarios
  6. After uploading the scenario, you have to rename the uploaded folder to the following name
    -> The folder has the respective workshop ID of the scenario (you can also find the ID in the direct link to the workshop item)
    -> The folder must now be renamed to the name of the scenario (ex.: Reforged Eden)
  7. Now go back to our website into the webinterface, first click on “My Servers”, choose your Emporyion server and then click on “Basic Settings” on the left hand side
  8. Scroll down to “CustomScenario” and select the desired scenario from the dropdown menu
